While we're on the subject of what is and isn't offensive, I find it
offensive when people publicly announce the contents of their killfiles
as if it were a) some kind of act of public interest and/or b) some kind
of extreme punishment.

Killfiles?  I support heartily.  (And, indeed, as I've offered before,
anybody who wants to drop me into their killfile may feel free to do so
at any time.  If they don't know how, I'll gladly provide instructions.)
Publishing your killfiles in whole or in dribs and drabs?  Is offensive.

Can we get people banned for doing that please?

"Sexual organs were created for reproduction between the male element
and the female element -- and everything that deviates from that is not
acceptable from a Buddhist point of view. Between a man and man, a woman
and another woman, in the mouth, the anus, or even using a hand." --The
